    Spontaneously Cracked Windshield?

    A neighbor of mine bought a MXLR and took delivery three days ago. When she came out to her car in the driveway yesterday, she had a huge crescent shaped crack in her windshield which looped around where the rearview mirror and front camera is. There are not pits or chips in her windshield...

    Ludicrous Mode or Acceleration Boost for Refresh Model X Long Range?

    Do you think Tesla will ever release a Ludicrous Mode or Acceleration Boost upgrade for the refreshed long range X in the software upgrade section of the app? Having a LR that can do 0-60 in 3.1-3.3 range would be very nice but slow enough to not directly complete with the Plaid for ultimate...

    Motor/Gear Noise on 2023 Model X?

    I took delivery of my 2023 Model X LR Tax edition at the end of November 2023. I am moving from a single motor Model Y (rare single performance motor Y) whose motor/gear noise was extremely quiet. Now driving the X with the music off, I hear what seems like a lot of motor 'whine' which wavers...

    Tesla Universal Wall Charger And Mobile Charger On The Same Circuit?

    Here is my current setup: I have a Model Y I have been using the mobile charger that came with the car (2021) to charge the car on a 14-50 NEMA 60A circuit I had installed back in 2021. I believe 4GA wire was installed since I requested it from the electrician. The length of wire from the...

    Chiming Noise and Seat Bolster Pulsing Strange Issue Experienced

    Today I had a weird issue with my X. When I parked it, It started chiming every few seconds for no reason and not giving any message on the screen. The drivers seat left side bolster would pulse in and out in sync with the chime. I could not get it to stop so I had to do the scroll wheel reset...

    Founder Edition Reservation Transfer?

    Is this possible? I have a friend who received the invite to purchase a Founders edition Cybertruck but he is in a financial position with his business right now where he cannot outlay that amount of money or finance the money due to some moves being made. It is bad timing for him. He wanted...

    Tesla Insurance Cracked Windshield Replacement?

    Has anyone ever filed a claim with their Tesla insurance for a cracked windshield? Is there a deductible? Do they raise your premiums? I am assuming no premium increase since it is through comprehensive and not collision but wanted to check what others have experienced.

    Tesla Only Wall Charger or Tesla Universal Wall Charger (House Power Share Feature)?

    Ok so now I am going to buy a wall charger and there is the universal and regular Tesla one. I understand that one has the J1772 adapter integrated into the unit but what I am really interest in is the "power share' feature only listed for the Tesla universal wall charger which allows you to...

    20'' Cyberstream Wheel Protectors

    I have seen wheel protectors for the Model Y rims that snap on and look really seamless to the original look. Are there any products like that for the 20'' Cyberstream wheels on the X?

    Adding a front bumper camera on a 2023 if they start delivering them in 2024 with cameras?

    So obviously Tesla Vision is still lacking in doing what the USS sensors did well for parking. We know the CT will have a front bumper camera with HW4. Looking at the past with what Tesla has offered in regards to retrofitting some hardware on older cars with new capabilities, does anyone know...

    Converting from 5 seat to 6 seat?

    So now that people are ordering the 5 seat rebate qualifying version of the X, I am pretty sure there are those who wanted to have the 6 seat config but could not due to the price variance to keep the tax rebate. I am just wondering if a 5 seat to 6 seat swap is possible after purchase (later...

    Lease Turn In Damage Questions

    So today in a parking lot there was a family getting into their car next to ours and their kid flung his door open and hit my Model Y at the back door. There is a small ding and the paint was scraped off to the primer/metal. There was a person there that saw what happened and told them their...

    Lease Turn In Options?

    So I have a lease on a Standard range Model Y and as all their leases for the Y were, you cannot buy it out at the end of the lease. What I was told is the car must be turned in for a likely use in the future "Robo-Taxi" fleet when unmonitored full self driving is up and working. FSD is at a...

    Curb rash paint for 20" turbine wheels

    Soooooo, it happened. A month and a week after taking delivery of the SRY with upgraded turbine wheels (not the performance trim uberturbine), my significant other kissed a curb with one wheel. It scraped about four inches of paint off and barely grooved the rim edge. Has anyone found a great...

    Paint and body damage from the factory

    So two days ago I had my mobile car wash guy come and wash our cars including the first car wash with the new MY we bought. He said he found some issues and asked me to come outside so he can show me. He said there were a few 'waves' in the sheet metal of the hood and two polishing 'burn'...

    USB Drive For Recording Sentry Mode, etc.

    Trying to get an idea of the side of thumb drive I need. Does anyone know how much recording time is stored on a 256gb thumb drive before it overwrites? I want it for the dash cam capability and sentry mode.

    Current Delivery Experience in Orange County, CA?

    I am taking delivery of my SRY this week in Costa Mesa and wanted to know how the current delivery process works due to the softening of the COVID restrictions, etc? Will an advisor be there to go over the car and any issues as well as give any walkthrough/training or will it be a "Your car is...

    Did the $7k additional tax rebate pass?

    I have been looking and cannot find confirmation it did pass in the green new deal or if it was removed at the end? If it was included, is it active for new Tesla’s purchased now?

    2021 Y Standard Real Range

    Does anyone have the standard range RWD Y with induction wheels? Also I live in Southern California so weather is always moderate. Looking for some info on real world range for that setup. I am thinking I do not need to go with LR and save the money since 99% of my driving are things that...
